Rupee rise is definetly a boon to India

Rupee rise is definetly a boon to India. It should be increase up to a certain level.
Presently rupeee dollar difference is too much.
If 1 Dollar = 12-15 rupee.
Then indian economy will play a lead role in the world market.
Reasons -
1. India can help to Asian, African neighbouring countries bearing in mind for India's good faith.
2. Indian companies, citizens can increase there influence by acquisition of foreign companies and investment in there markets.
3. Trade for defence equipment , oil etc. became cheaper.
4. Quality education, people will play and share there views and can work together globally with an ease.

As per my belief some ppl and companies are creating unnecessarily making hue and cry about just a smll rise in rupee, while there profit margin is still very high.Are they unable for globally competitive market.India will be still be best destination to invest , for IT companies and for outsourcing companies i.e Globaloffice of world even if Dollar/Rupee = 20

Banking sector drop in the market due to CRR hike

Due to maintain new CRR rate, message goes in the market Bnak's are not funding as compare to earlier.
And they are absorbing extra liquidity.
Thats why ICICI , HDFC , SBI, Bank of India, Yes Bank and Karnataka Bank etc. became loosers on 31st october in Indian stock market.

Government intervene rupee hike

Government intervene rupee hike


On 29th october 2007, Indian share market zooms, despite rupee is not hiked in such a way.
Acording to sources : RBI gave instructions to Nationalised banks to buy dollar, and due to demand from corporates as well checked rupee rise.

Now RBI increase CRR by 50 basis points to 7.5% . So that now nationalised banks have to maintain CRR ( Cash Reserve ration) to 7.5 %. By doing this excess liquidity in the market absorbed by banks.
Approx 7000-8000 crore rupee drain out said some sources.

Some sources say approx 15,000 crore will be suck out from banking system.
Hike is due to maintain liquidity and due to sharp rise in rupee that creates problem to new job creation.

To maintain price stability, credit quality such measures to be taken.

BSE / NSE at new high ( Historical Moment for Indian Stock Exchange )

Bombay stock exchange brakes all record reaches 20,000 (20 K) mark today ( 29th October 2007) , Milestone created for Indian Stock Exchange.
Now some people are expecting to reach it 22 K and some are nervous.

Rupee again became strong against US Dollar and other economies.

Some analyst suggest that it happens due to finance minister P. Chidarambam saying Indian GDP may again see a 9 % growth.
If the growth level sustains with this rate for the next 5 years, then some analyst suggest - Dollar will definitely be below 25 Rs level.

Now please give comment - What happen if 1 rupee = 1 dollar
According to me -
Positive Factor -
1. Indian economy may become a dominated economy, as India can help neighbouring countries and other nations.
2. Indian's can invest other countries economy. Easy access to there quality education. Indian's can play a global role.

Negative Factor -
1. Import increases and Export Decreases. Developed countries can flood there productions to country like India. Then how we people survive.

But as a whole if 1 Dollar = 10-15 rupess then its really very helpfull to India.
And for both country like USA and India.
So tha US gets quality service from India. And India become stronger in economy due to flow of foreign currency ( So that easily buy many things from global market).
Please give comment of urs -

Vibrant India

Indian Economy is Booming

Indian Stock Exchange is near to 19000 sensex. (18935) hillarious moment.
Expectation to 20K upto Dipawali.
Indian Rupee is rising
1 US Dollar = 39.33 INR and rising day by day.

As per my belief, dollar will be depreciated for next 15 years, if the comditions remains same.This is due to large inflow of dollar to India. And indian currency became stronger in the world market with respect to other currencies too. Because at the age of globalization ( when communication is going to fast every day), all European, US, Australia , NZ are looking for cheap services for their country. And India has advantage of English language and having cheap services.While in case of China, English language a problem. That's why india is best destination for software services. And another problem with U.S is struggling with the other countries and investing a huge amount for this. If India can play a better role in computer hardware sector, KPO ( i.e a huge unemployed sector is waiting for this), and provide corruption free service, no beuracracy, stable government. Then Indian economy boosting to its strength.

IT/ITES proved their strength, now KPO ( Knowledge Process Outsourcing) like Biotech , Research worker etc. have to prove their strangth.
IT creates a platform for this like fast communication , videp conferencing , voice chating.

I think future is like this -
A Global Village has been created.
People are interconnecting globally and providing their services globally.
Electronic gazetes are every where.
We are spending most of our time online - either it is shopping OR service.
Many types of barriers are broken like - caste, regionilism, relioginism but to cosmopolitian.
As in past, people first started to setup communication medium ( language , expression etc.)
And here IT ( Information technology ) is doing the same thing - connecting world.
If India enhance their energy capacity, spread IT to villages then Indian economy booming to its ultimate height.

Tamilnadu - Religion Based Reservation

Tamilnadu - Religion Based Reservation ( Interesting India )


Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi told that the government had accepted the recommendations by Justice M. Janardanam ( Retired judge Madras High court)

Reservation Quota in Tamilnadu-

- 30 percent for backward classes -,
- 20 percent for most backward classes - and denotified tribes -,
- 18 percent for scheduled castes -, and
- 1 percent for scheduled tribes -.

The overall reservation is thus 69 percent, benefiting as much as 87 percent of this state's population.

It was challenged in court and its constitutional validity is still in question. Tamil Nadu is afraid that its 69 percent quota might be cut by the courts.


Karunanidhi said Justice M. Janardanam, a retired judge of the Madras High court, had been asked to review the Ambashankar panel report on BCs and OBCs and 'had stated that the report of the Second Commission could be the basis for the exclusive reservation for Christians and Muslims'

Gene for human height

Scientist have discovered(first time) a gene for height HMGA2

Scientist analysed 5000 people from Britain, Sweden and Finland and found 90% heridity is the cause of height.
But if HMGA-2 gene is placed in such a way -

'C' (for cytosine) instead of a 'T' (for thymine) – adds nearly a centimetre in height to people who inherited this variant from both parents. Those who got the 'C' variant from only one of their parents were about half a centimetre taller than their 'T' counterparts.

i.e A difference 1 c.m height can be possible through HMGA-2 gene.

Research is going on and may get more genes in this direction.
